LEBANON    VALLEY    COLLEGE. 


The  pouNDiiSiG  of  the  Institution. 


T  EBANON  VALLEY  COLLEGE  came  into  existence  to 
J-i  supply  an  absolute  want.  Denominational  growth  and  an 
advancing  civilization  rendered  it  necessary  for  the  Church  of 
"The  United  Brethren  in  Christ,"  throughout  the  States  of 
Pennsylvania,  Maryland  and  Virginia,  to  make  special  provision 
for  the  moral  and  intellectual  culture  of  her  children.  After 
much  deliberation  and  prayer,  it  was  resolved  that  an  institu- 
tion of  learning  be  established,  which  would  furnish  the  ad- 
vantages of  a  thorough  education  alike  to  young  men  and 
women,  under  the  safe  and  inspiring  influences  of  the  Christian 
religion. 

To  carry  out  this  purpose,  a  committee  of  worthy  gentlemen 
was  chosen,  with  authority  to  elect  a  suitable  place  for  its  es- 
tablishment. 

The  Town  of  Annville, 

located  in  the  midst  of  the  beautiful  Lebanon  Valley,  was 
chosen  on  account  of  its  accessibility,  healthfulness  and  in- 
spiring scenery. 

As  a  further  inducement  to  locate  the  College  at  this  place, 
a  suitable  building  and  grounds  were  donated  by  public-spirited 
citizens  for  educational  purposes.  In  1866  the  Institution  was 
founded  and  in  1867  chartered  by  a  Special  Act  of  the  Legisla- 
ture of  the  Commonwealth  of  Pennsylvania. 

The  Aim 

of  the  Trustees  and  Faculty,  from  the  first,  has  been  to  provide 
courses  of  study  which  will  qualify  students  to  be  practical  and 
self-reliant,  as  well  as  learned. 


4  LEBANON  VALLEY  COLLEGE. 

The  Charter  plainly  indicates,  that  it  was  the  intention  of  the 
founders  to  plant  an  institution  which  would  become  so  ample 
in  facilities  and  manifold  in  departments  as  to  furnish  in- 
struction in  all  the  subjects  of  a  general  and  special  education, 
and  toward  this  original  purpose  the  Institution  will  advance  as 
rapidly  as  the  necessary  means  are  secured  and  circumstances 
will  demand  it. 

Officers  of  the  Corporation. 

The  Board  of  Trustees  are  elected  by  the  co-operating  con- 
ferences, one-third  of  whom  are  elected  annually  for  a  term  of 
three  years. 

The  members  of  the  Faculty,  and  two  persons  chosen  by 
the  Alumni  from  their  own  number,  sustain  an  ex-officio  rela- 
tion. 

Fidelity  to  Patrons. 

The  members  of  the  Faculty  believe  that  all  pupils  should  be 
encouraged  to  educate  as  thoroughly  as  their  means  and  native 
endowment  will  admit,  even  when  there  is  promise  of  only 
moderate  success ;  but  when  a  student  persists  in  a  course  of 
indifference,  and  manifests  no  appreciation  of  time,  money  or 
opportunities,  the  Institution  regards  itself  morally  bound  to 
make  known  the  facts  to  its  patrons,  but  not  until  every  worthy 
method  has  been  employed  for  his  reformation. 

Co-Education. 

The  principle  of  co-education  of  the  sexes  was  adopted  from 
the  first  by  the  founders  of  the  College — and  the  entire  absence 
of  college  barbarities  and  excesses,  as  well  as  the  manifestation 
of  a  tendency  to  a  higher  standard  of  scholarship,  from  year  to 
year,  proves  the  wisdom  of  this  natural  order  of  things.  The 
facilities  of  the  College  and  the  encouragement  to  a  thorough 
education  are  offered  alike  to  all.  And  experience  has  shown 
that  there  is  no  appreciable  difference  between  the  male  and  the 
female,  as  such,  as  to  ability  in  mastering  the  studies  of  a 
college  course. 


LEBANON  VALLEY  COLLEGE.  5 

Non-Sectarian. 

While  the  College  is  denominational  in  management,  it  is 
positively  free  from  sectarian  bias ;  and  the  liberal  patronage 
which  it  has  enjoyed  from  homes  representing  all  phases  of 
Protestant  faith,  as  well  as  from  the  homes  of  non-professors, 
attests  the  fact  that  colleges  may  inculcate  the  principles  of 
christian  morality  without  traducing  the  religious  convictions 
or  personal  belief  of  any  one. 

Aggressive  in  Spirit. 

The  Institution  is  not  bound  in  theory  or  practice  to  anti- 
quated methods,  but  it  seeks  to  interpret  the  laws  of  science 
and  of  life  in  keeping  with  the  spirit  of  progress  and  the  lead- 
ings of  Providence. 

Guaranty. 

Fidelity  to  these  principles  in  the  past  is  the  guaranty  that 
the  Institution  offers  to  its  patrons  in  the  future.

LEBANON  VALLEY  COLLEGE. 


(JOURSES  OF  gTUtlY. 


The  College  offers  four  courses  of  study — the  Classical,  the 
Scientific,  the  Academical  and  the  Musical. 

The  Classical  Course 

is  the  most  thorough,  and  should  be  elected  by  those  who  con- 
template entering  the  "  Learned  Professions,"  and  by  such  as 
aspire  to  the  ripest  scholarship  or  purely  literary  pursuits.  Those 
who  satisfactorily  finish  this  course  are  graduated  with  the  de- 
gree— Bachelor  of  Arts. 

The  Scientific  Course 

requires  but  one  ancient  language — either  the  Greek  or  the 
Latin ;  otherwise  it  is  the  same  as  the  Classical  Course. 
It  leads  to  the  degree — Bachelor  of  Science. 

The  Academical  Course 

extends  over  three  Collegiate  years,  and  is  as  full  and  symmetrical 
as  the  time  will  admit.  It  is  intended  to  furnish  the  necessary 
discipline  and  instruction  for  a  practical  education.  A  diploma 
will  be  awarded  to  those  who  complete  this  course. 

The  Musical  Course, 

in  addition  to  the  regular  studies  of  the  subject,  requires  a  gen- 
erous knowledge  of  such  branches  as  are  best  suited  to  a  musical 
education.

GENERAL  PREPARATORY. 

During  each  term  of  the  Collegiate  year,  two  classes  in  Arith- 
metic are  organized  ;  also,  one  in  Elementary  Algebra,  two 
classes  in  (rreene's  English  Grammar,  one  in  Analysis,  and  one 
in  Definitions  and  Parsing ;  also,  classes  in  Reading,  Drawing, 
Penmanship,  Mitchell's  Descriptive  Geography,  and  a  class  in 
Book-keeping. 


NORMAL  DEPARTMENT. 
It  has  been  our  custom  for  a  number  of  years  to  provide  a 
Normal  Department  for  the  instruction  of  teachers,  or  of  those 
who  intend  to  teach,  and  our  work  has  been  appreciated. 
More  recently  the  department  has  been  more  fully  developed, 
the  course  enlarged,  the  number  of  instructors  increased,  and 
more  general  facilities  provided.  This  Normal  Department  is 
in  session  only  during  the  Spring  Term. 

Course  of  Instruction. 

United  States  History,  (Anderson  or  Swinton)  ;  Physical 
Geography,  (Mitchell  or  Warren) ;  Political  Geography, 
(Mitchell) ;  Civil  Government,  (Young)  ;  English  Grammar, 
(Raub  or  Greene)  ;  Higher  English,  (Raub  or  Greene)  ;  Read- 
ing, (Appleton's  Fifth)  ;  Orthography,  (Raub)  ;  Physiology, 
(Mill) ;  Written  Arithmetic,  A,  (Brooks'  Normal)  ;  Written 
Arithemetic,  B,  (Brooks'  Normal)  ;  Mental  Arithmetic,  A  and 
B,  (Brooks');  Algebra,  (Robinson's  Elementary);  Theory  of 
Teaching,  (Raub  or  Baldwin) ;  Latin  Grammar,  Beginning, 
(Allen  &  Greenough's  Grammar  and  Jones'  Lessons). 

In  addition  to  these  the  regular  college  work,  including  the 
Higher  Mathematics,  Sciences,  &c.,  offers  opportunities  for  ad- 
vanced work  that  some  may  desire  to  improve,  in  so  far  as  they 
Jo  not  conflict  with  their  regular  normal  work. 

Lectures  by  prominent  educators  on  various  phases  of  the 
educational  work  will  be  freely  provided,  to  add  variety,  inter- 
est and  inspiration. 


28  LEBANON   VALLEY    COLLEGE. 


DEPARTMENT  OF  MUSIC. 


Music  Course. 


The  course  of  instruction  in  either  Piano  or  Voice  will  occupy 
three  years.  A  Preparatory  year  is  also  required  of  those  who 
expect  to  enter  upon  the  regular  course,  and  are  not  already 
familiar  with  the  rudiments  of  music.  Pupils  may  devote  their 
entire  time  to  music,  or  take  it  in  connection  with  other  studies. 
The  stated  time  for  completing  the  course  may  be  lengthened  or 
shortened,  according  to  the  advancement  of  the  pupil.  Some 
pupils  will  accomplish  in  two  years  what  would  take  others  three 
or  four  years  to  complete.  A  knowledge  of  the  elements  of 
Harmony  will  be  required,  or  one  year's  study,  in  order  to 
graduate  in  either  Piano  or  Voice.  At  the  close  of  each  term  a 
written  examination  is  made.  A  graduate  in  Voice  is  also  ex- 
pected to  acquire  a  degree  of  proficiency  on  the  Piano,  sufficient 
to  enable  him  to  play  his  own  accompaniments. 

Private  and  Class  Lessons. 

Private  lessons  will  be  given  at  extra  cost,  but  the  class  system 
is  strongly  recommended.  It  is  practiced  in  the  best  conserva- 
tories of  this  country  and  Europe.  Mendelssohn  says  :  "it  has 
advantages  over  private  instruction  :  it  produce  industry,  spurs 
on  to  emulation  and  preserves  against  one-sidedness  of  educa- 
tion and  taste."  "  The  student  of  music  will  as  surely  fail  of 
a  complete  musical  education,  by  taking  private  instruction 
alone,  as  would  the  student  of  science  without  the  advantage  of 
the  College  or  University."    , 

Students  in  Piano  are  arranged  in  classes  of  two.  Voice  cul- 
ture pupils  in  classes  of  two  or  four.  Harmony  students  in 
classes  of  four  or  six. 

Elements  of  music,  sight-singing  and  part-singing  classes  free 
to  all  music  pupils.  Public  recitals  are  given  by  the  music 
pupils  every  two  months. 

Pupils  will  take  practice  in  ensemble  playing. 


LEBANON    VALLEY   COLLEGE.  29 


Recitations. 


Classes  in  cultivation  of  the  voice,  piano-forte,  organ,  har- 
mony and  chorus  practice  receive  two  lessofis  a  week.  Stu- 
dents may  enter  at  any  time,  but  it  is  very  desirable  that  they 
should  begin  with  the  term  on  account  of  grading,  time  of  les- 
sons, &c.  A  careful  examination  is  made  by  the  teacher  in 
charge,  regarding  the  proficiency  of  all  new  pupils,  that  they 
may  be  properly  classified  in  the  course. 

Sheet  music,  books,  (Sec,  can  be  obtained  at  reduced  rates. 

Those  who  complete  the  required  course  of  study  in  either 
Piano  or  Voice  are  awarded  a  diploma.  Diplomas  will  be  con- 
ferred only  at  the  Annual  Commencement. 


ART  DEPARTMENT. 


This  department  is  well  supplied  with  studies  from  the  best 
artists,  new  additions  being  made  from  time  to  time.  Ample 
opportunities  are  afforded  for  obtaining  instruction  in  Free-hand 
Drawing,  both  from  casts  and  the  flat.  Modelling  in  Clay, 
Painting  in  Oil,  China  and  Water  Colors.  It  is  intended  to 
impart  essential  principles  while  training  the  eye  and  hand  to 
accurate  and  successful  practice. 

Special  advantages  in  this  department  are  afforded  by  a  sys- 
tem of  giving  daily  lessons,  which  is  not  customary  in  schools 
not  especially  devoted  to  Art. 

Students  will  find  works  of  interest  and  assistance  in  the  Col- 
lege Library. 


30  LEBANON  VALLEY  COLLEGE. 


(Jenehal  Information. 


LEBANON  VALLEY  COLLEGE  is  located  at  Annville. 
This  village  is  noted  for  its  healthfulness  and  freedom 
from  those  temptations  to  vice  so  common  to  cities  and  large 
towns.  It  is  accessible  from  all  points,  being  located  on  the 
direct  route  of  railroad  travel  from  Harrisburg,  via  Reading,  to 
Philadelphia  or  New  York.  Trains  stopping  at  Annville  leave 
Harrisburg  and  Reading  seven  times  a  day,  Sunday  excepted. 

Buildings  and  Grounds. 

There  are  two  large  brick  buildings,  capable  of  accommoda- 
ting a  large  number  of  students.  The  rooms  are  arranged  for 
two  students  each,  are  well  ventilated,  contain  clothes-presses 
and  other  conveniences. 

There  has  recently  been  erected  a  third  building,  containing 
the  Library,  a  large  and  well-lighted  Art-Room,  two  Music 
Rooms,  the  entire  Department  of  Natural  Science,  with  its 
Laboratory  and  Museum.  There  is  also  a  fine  campus  of  about 
six  acres. 

The  Ladies'  Hall  is  entirely  separate  from  the  other  prem- 
ises, and  is  under  the  immediate  care  of  the  Preceptress.  Young 
ladies  from  abroad  are  furnished  a  comfortable  and  pleasant 
home,  where  they  have  every  advantage  for  study  and  general 
improvement.  Non-resident  students  board  in  the  Institution, 
where  they  are  under  the  continual  care  of  the  President  and 
Professors. 

Furnishing  and  Outfit. 

Students  are  required  to  furnish  their  own  bedding,  except 
the  mattress,  bolster  and  pillows.  They  should  have  their  blan- 
kets, sheets,  pillow-cases  and  clothing  indelibly  marked  with 
their  full  name. 


LEBANON    VALLEY   COLLEGE.  3 1 

Spending  Money, 

Patrons  are  kindly  but  urgently  reminded  that  students  need 
very  little  pocket  money. 

It  should  be  remembered  that  luxurious  habits  and  good 
scholarship  seldom  go  together,  and  that  the  principles  and 
practice  of  economy  are  essential  to  a  good  education. 

For  All, 

It  is  desired  that  the  facilities  of  the  College  be  kept  within 
the  reach  of  all,  and  it  is  therefore  urged  that  jewelry  be  left  at 
home,  and  that  in  dress  there  be  no  vain  display  of  wealth. 

All  that  is  beyond  a  becoming  neatness  should  be  discarded 

by  the  student. 

Discipline. 

The  object  of  the  institution  is  to  afford  a  home,  where  pa- 
rents or  guardians  may  place  their  sons,  daughters,  and  wards, 
with  safety  and  profit, and  where  young  men  and  young  women 
may  be  fitted  for  usefulness  under  influences  calculated  to  refine 
their  tastes,  ennoble  their  aspirations,  discipline  their  intellectual 
powers,  and  develop  a  high  Christian  character.  The  Govern- 
ment of  the  College  is  strict  but  parental,  making  its  appeal 
to  the  student's  own  sense  of  honor,  but  no  one  habitually 
guilty  of  immoral  practices,  or  who  is  persistently  disorderly, 
can  be  tolerated  in  the  institution.  Every  unexcused  absence, 
failure,  or  misdemeanor  of  a  student  is  reported  to  the  Faculty, 
and  a  record  made  of  the  same. 

The  first  three  demerit  marks  will  subject  the  student  to  pri- 
vate reproof;  the  first  six  to  reproof  before  the  Faculty  ;  the  first 
nine  to  reproof  in  public,  with  notice  to  parent  or  guardian ; 
and  the  first  twelve  to  dismission  from  the  College. 

The  Faculty  may,  on  evidence  of  reformation,  restore  a  dis- 
missed student. 

Studies  and  Recitations. 

Students  are  required  to  pursue  the  studies  of  the  classes  to 
which  they  are  assigned,  unless  exempted  for  special  reasons. 


32  LEBANON    VALLEY    COLLEGE. 

No  Student  is  permitted  to  take  a  study  to  which  lie  has  not 
been  assigned,  nor  to  discontinue  a  study  without  permission 
obtained  from  the  Faculty. 

Grading. 

Students  are  graded  on  their  work  in  the  Recitation  Room. 
The  standard  of  perfection  in  scholarship  is  loo.  The  student's 
standing  is  determined  by  the  average  of  his  term  and  examina- 
tion grades.  A  grade  of  less  than  65  per  centum  will  compel 
the  student  to  submit  to  a  second  examination,  or  to  repeat  the 
study  with  the  next  lower  class. 

Parents  having  children  in  the  College  classes,  and  desiring 
their  report  and  grades,  may  obtain  them  by  applying  to  the 
Secretary  of  the  Faculty. 

Examinations. 

Regular  examinations  are  held  at  the  close  of  each  term. 
The  examinations  are  intended  to  be  thorough,  and  have  an  in- 
fluence in  determining  the  standing  of  the  student. 

In  all  cases,  when  from  any  cause  a  student  has  failed  to  be 
present  at  the  regular  examination,  he  shall  undergo  an  exam- 
niation  before  being  permitted  again  to  recite  in  the  classes  of 
the  College. 

The  final  examinations  of  the  Seniors  are  held  two  weeks 
before  Commencement,  from  which  time  they  are  subject  only 
to  such  duties  as  are  required  for  their  preparation  for  gradua- 
tion. 

Candidates  for  class  standing  other  than  those  who  have  reg- 
ularly pursued  their  studies  at  the  College,  or  who  bring  certifi- 
cates of  class  standing  in  other  institutions,  are  required  to  pass 
special  examinations,  either  at  the  beginning  or  end  of  a  term. 

Promotion. 

At  the  beginning  of  each  term,  the  old  classes  are  re-organ- 
ized and  new  ones  formed.  At  or  near  the  close  of  each 
academic  year,  the  names  of  all  the  members  of  each  class,  sep- 


LEBANON    VALLEY    COLLEGE.  33

thp  Senior  Class  for  graduation,  and  no  student  is  promoted  to 
a  higher  class,  or  to  graduation,  except  upon  the  unanimous 
vote  of  the  Faculty. 

Rhetorical  Exercise. 

All  Students  upon  entering  the  Institution  are  assigned  to 
rhetorical  classes,  which  are  met  on  Wednesday  of  each  week  by 
members  of  the  Faculty  for  literary  drill.  These  Rhetoricals, 
together  with  the  Literary  Societies,  afford  sufficient  opportuni- 
ties for  exercise  in  Composition  and  Oratory.  Advanced  classes 
in  the  College  are  required  to  take  part  in  public  exercises  two 
or  three  times  a  year. 

Leave  of  Absence. 

No  student  is  allowed  to  be  absent  during  the  term  without 
special  permission.  The  absence  of  a  student,  for  even  a  day, 
during  his  term-time,  exerts  on  his  progress  an  evil  influence, 
which  is  seldom  fully  appreciated  by  parents  and  guardians ; 
hence  no  apology,  but  that  of  sickness  or  unavoidable  accident, 
is  sufficient  to  excuse  a  student  from  regular  attendance  at 
recitation. 

No  student,  during  the  term,  is  expected  to  quit  the  Institu- 
tion without  the  consent  of  the  President  and  Faculty. 

Any  one  withdrawing  from  the  Institution  during  term  time, 
without  giving  due  notice,  and  having  permission  to  do  so,  will 
be  marked  upon  the  records  as  having  irregularly  withdrawn. 

Any  student  prevented  from  attending  class  must  present  to 
the  Professor  in  charge  a  written  excuse  for  being  absent 

Religious  Exercises. 

Religious  service  is  held  in  the  College  Chapel  on  the  morn- 
ing of  each  day,  and  all  students  are  required  to  attend. 

Students  from  abroad,  who  are  residents  of  the  College,  are 
also  required  to  attend  public  worship  on  the  Sabbath  in  the 
United  Brethren  Church,  unless  otherwise  directed  by  the 
Faculty,  except  those  who,  on  account  of  church  membership. 


34  LEBANON    VALLEY    COLLEGE. 

or  wish  of  parent  or  guardian,  may  prefer  to  attend  church 
elsewhere. 

A  students'  prayer  meeting,  to  which  all  are  invited,  is  held 
on  each  Tuesday  evening. 

Y.  M.  C.  A. 

There  is  a  thrifty  organization  of  the  Young  Men's  Christian 
Association  in  the  College,  which  holds  its  meetings  on  Satur- 
day night  of  each  week.  The  moral  influence  of  this  organiza- 
tion is  very  salutary  in  the  institution. 

Literary  Societies. 

There  are  connected  with  the  College  three  lii-erary  Societies 
— the  Clionian,  the  Philokosmian,  and  the  Kalozetean. 
The  first  is  the  ladies'  society.  Each  has  its  proper  hall  and  its 
own  library.  These  societies  are  regarded  as  valuable  aids  to 
college  work,  and  students  are  advised  to  join  one  of  them. 

Physical  Culture. 

A  well  equipped  gymnasium  is  in  operation  in  the  main  Col- 
lege building,  to  which  all  students  have  access  at  stated  times 
by  the  payment  of  a  small  fee.  A  careful  "Director"  has 
oversight  of  these  exercises  to  guard  against  accidents  and  im- 
moderation. 

In  addition  to  the  physical  discipline  of  the  gymnasium,  the 
students  are  required  to  take  regular  exercise  in  the  open  air 
when  the  weather  will  admit  of  it,  and  every  precaution  is  taken 
to  foster  health. 

Help  for  Indigent  Students. 

The  College  has  methods  of  assisting  a  limited  number  of 
worthy  young  men  who  have  not  the  means  of  defraying  their 
own  expenses,  and  yet  scores  apply  from  year  to  year,  both  of 
ladies  and  gentlemen,  whom  we  have  not  the  means  to  help. 
May  not  the  statement  of  this  fact  be  a  sufficient  appeal  to  lead 
many  to  endow  scholarships,  the  income  of  which  will  be  suf- 
ficient to  help  to  an  education  those  who  could  not  otherwise 
obtain  it  ? 


LEBANON    VALLEY    COLLEGE.  35 


Libraries  and  Cabinets. 


The  College  Library,  to  which  all  the  students  have  daily 
access  without  charge,  contains  nearly  twenty-eight  hundred 
volumes.  The  libraries  of  the  literary  societies  also  comprise  a 
respectable  number  of  well  selected  and  standard  volumes.  The 
libraries  are  constantly  increasing  by  donations  from  friends 
and  from  the  proceeds  of  a  constantly  accruing  fund. 

The  Cabinet  contains  a  collection  of  specimens  in  Miner- 
alogy, Geology  and  Natural  History.  • 
Reading  Room. 

There  is  in  the  College  a  well-stocked  Reading  Room  which 
is  daily  accessible  to  the  students,  and  in  connection  with  it  a 
Natural  History  Club  which  operates  in  conjunction  with  the 
corresponding  department  of  the  institution. 

A  small  fee  is  charged  for  reading-room  privileges.

Bachelor  of  Arts. — This  degree  is  conferred  in  course  upon 
any  student  of  the  College  who  completes  the  studies  of  the

in  charge  of  the  department  concerned. 


;^6  LEBANON    VALLEY    COLLEGE. 

Schedule. 

At  the  end  of  each  term  a  Schedule  of  the  College  Exercises 
for  the  ensuing  term  is  issued.  Every  student  must  take  the 
equivalent  of  at  least  fifteen  periods  of  recitations  each  week, 
unless  excused  by  special  action  of  the  Faculty. 

S.  S.  Normal  Class. 

A  Normal  Class  for  the  instruction  of  Sunday  School  Teach- 
er^ is  conducted  on  each  Sabbath  by  one  of  the  Professors. 
The  course  of  instruction  extends  over  one  year,  and  is  the 
one  provided  for  and  used  by  the  Bible  Normal  Union.  A 
diploma  issued  by  the  Sunday  School  Board  of  the  United 
Brethren  Church  is  granted  to  students  who  complete  the  course. 

Lecture  Course. 

A  course  of  Popular  Lectures  will  be  delivered  during  the 
Fall  and  Winter  Terms  by  some  of  the  most  noted  lecturers  in 
the  field. 

During  the  past  year  the  following  lecturers  were  engaged  : 

Prof.  Henry  Houck,  Deputy  State  Supt. ;  Prof.  R.  M.  Mc- 
Neal ;  Prof.  John  W.  Snoke,  County  Supt. ;  Dr.  E.  E.  Higbee,

A.  A.  Willets,  Rev.  John  DeWitt  Miller,  Thomas  H.  Murray, 
Rev.  Russell  H.  Conwell  and  others. 

In  addition  to  these  lectures,  there  were  lectures  by  the 
Faculty. 

Announcement  and  Suggestions. 

From  time  to  time  additions  are  being  made  of  apparatus  for 
philosophical  and  laboratory  purposes  as  well  as  of  specimens 
of  scientific  and  historic  interest.  Many  of  these  additions  are 
the  gift  of  friends  to  whom  the  College  makes  grateful  acknowl- 
edgment. 

The  institution  is  prepared  to  suitably  preserve  and  exhibit  all 
specimens  of  any  value,  and  in  all  cases  the  wishes  of  donors 
will  be  respected. 


LEBANON  VALLEY  COLLEGE.  37 

Specimens  in  Geology,  Mineralogy,  Botany  and  Zoology  are 
especially  solicited. 

Contributions  to  the  College  Library  will  also  be  highly  ap- 
preciated, especially  of  old  and  rare  books  and  manuscripts, 
which  are  liable  to  be  lost  if  they  are  not  deposited  in  the  li- 
brary of  a  permanent  institution. 

Books,  specimens  and  antique  relics  should  be  addressed  to 
the  librarian  or  Professor  of  the  Natural  Science  Department, 
with  the  donor's  name  legibly  signed.

The  charges  for  room  rent,  heat  and  furniture  is  made  on  the  basis  of 
two  persons  to  each  room.  In  case  where  a  student  rooms  alone  he  will 
be  charged  50  cents  additional  per  week.  Any  student  not  boarding  in 
the  institution  and  occupying  a  room  in  the  building  will  be  charged  a 
reasonable  rent  for  the  same. 

Extra  washing,  plain  pieces,  50  cents  per  dozen.  White  dresses,  etc., 
extra. 

Each  student  will  be  held  accountable  for  any  damage  he  or  she  may 
cause  to  the  college  property.  Students  will  be  held  individually  respon- 
sible for  all  damage  done  to  their  rooms,  by  whomsoever  committed. 

Tuition  and  room  rent  are  counted  from  the  time  of  entering  to  the  end 
of  the  term,  and  tuition  from  the  first  of  the  term  for  entrance  second  or 
third  week. 

We  urge  a  comparison  of  these  charges  with  those  of  other  schools,  be- 
lieving that  such  a  comparison  will  establish  the  fact  that  our  rates  are  more 
moderate  for  the  advantages  afforded  than  can  be  found  elsewhere. 

Terms  of  Payment. 

All  fees  for  diplomas  and  degrees  must  be  paid  thirty  days  before  Com- 
mencement. 

One-half  of  all  other  bills  in  advance.  Balance  in  the  middle  of  the 
term.  This  rule  will  be  firmly  adhered  to.  No  student  can  be  admitted 
to  classes  until  all  bills  are  satisfactorily  settled  with  the  Financial  Secretary.

^NIDOWMENT. 


There  are  Christian  men  and  women  who  could  not  devote  themselves 
to  the  pursuits  of  knowledge  for  want  of  means ;  throughout  their  life  they 
have  felt  that  they  might  have  been  more  useful  and  happy,  had  the  oppor- 
tunities of  securing  an  education  been  afforded  them.  Will  not  these  men 
and  women  become  the  benefactors  of  those  worthy  young  people,  many 
of  whom  now  are  thirsting  for  an  education,  but  who  are  so  circumstanced 
that  they  cannot  obtain  it  ? 

Those  wishing  to  consecrate  some  of  their  means  to  such  an  end  are 
solicited  to  endow  limited  scholarships  in  Lebanon  Valley  College,  to  assist 
those  who  are  deserving  of  help.  These  may  vary  in  amount  from  S500 
to  §2,000.  They  may  also  help  to  bring  the  opportunities  of  an  education 
within  the  reach  of  those  in  limited  circumstances  by  contributing  to  the 
endowment  of  the  College. 

Form  of  Scholarship  Bequest. 

I  bequeath  to  my  executors  the  sum  of dollars,  in  trust,  to 

pay  over  the  same  in months  after  my  decease,  to  the  person 

who,  when  the  same  is  payable,  shall  act  as  Treasurer  of  Lebanon  Valley 
College,  founded  at  Annville,  Pennsylvania,  in  the  year  one  thousand  eight 
hundred  and  sixty-six,  as  a  scholarship  fund,  the  interest  of  which  only  is 
to  be  loaned  without  charge  to  such  pious  young  people  as  the  Faculty  of 
the  College  may  deem  worthy  of  help  as  students,  the  principal  of  the 
scholarship  to  be  under  the  direction  and  management  of  the  Trustees  of 
the  College. 

Form  of  Bequest  to  the  Endowment  Fund. 

I  bequeath  to  my  executors  the  sum  of dollars,  in  trust,  to 

pay  over  the  same  in months,  after  my  decease,  to  the  person 

who,  when  the  same  is  payable,  shall  act  as  Treasurer  of  Lebanon  Valley 
College,  founded  in  Annville,  Pennsylvania,  in  the  year  one  thousand  eight 
hundred  and  sixty-six,  the  same  to  be  sacred  as  an  endowment  fund  in  said 
College,  the  interest  only  to  be  used  for  the  payment  of  instructors  in  the 
department ;  the  principal  of  said  bequest  to  be  under  the  di- 
rection and  management  of  the  Trustees  of  the  College.
